When it comes to your child’s safety, compromise simply isn’t an option.

Choosing a safe pram is one of the most important decisions parents make. At Edwards & Co, pram safety, baby protection, and long-term durability are not features added at the end, they are engineered into every stage of our design and product development process.

From busy New Zealand footpaths to international travel, our baby prams and strollers are built to meet strict safety standards, ensuring structural stability, brake reliability, secure harness systems, and premium non-toxic fabrics.

Every Edwards & Co pram is designed to deliver maximum baby safety, smooth manoeuvrability, and long-term performance in real family life.

Because when it comes to stroller safety and protecting your baby, nothing matters more than confidence, compliance, and uncompromising quality.

Is Edwards & Co a Good and Safe Pram Brand?

This is one of the most common questions parents ask when researching baby gear.

The short answer? Yes… and here’s why:

Every Edwards & Co pram undergoes up to 24 months of safety and certification testing before reaching the market. We invest hundreds of thousands of dollars annually into independent third-party testing, research, and product development to ensure our prams meet, and often exceed, required safety standards in New Zealand, Australia, and Europe.

We don’t design for trends.
We design for long-term performance, structural integrity, and child safety.

More than 1,600+ verified customers have left positive reviews highlighting our prams’ build quality, stability, smooth handling, and durability — reinforcing what our testing already proves.

How Are Edwards & Co Prams Tested for Safety in New Zealand?

All Edwards & Co prams are tested against strict local and international safety standards, including:

• AS/NZS 2088:2013 and 2022 (New Zealand & Australia Pram Safety Standard)
• EN1888:2018 (European stroller safety standard)
• Australian Consumer Product Notices (CPN No.7 & No.8 of 2007)

These standards assess:

• Structural strength
• Frame durability
• Locking mechanisms
• Dynamic movement stress
• Load-bearing performance

Testing includes both static and dynamic scenarios, meaning the pram is evaluated under weight, movement, repeated folding, and real-world simulation.

If it doesn’t meet performance thresholds, it doesn’t pass.

Are Edwards & Co Prams Tested by Independent Laboratories?

Yes.

Our products are independently tested and certified by globally recognised laboratories such as SGS and Intertek.

Where possible, testing is conducted under accreditation bodies such as CNAS, which verify the competence and quality of testing facilities. This ensures full transparency and documented compliance.

We hold official third-party test reports, because safety claims should always be backed by evidence.

How Durable Are Edwards & Co Prams for Everyday Use?

Durability is just as important as safety.

Parents don’t buy a pram for six months, they buy it for years of daily use.

Our frames are stress-tested for:

• Repeated folding cycles
• Weight load at maximum capacity
• Joint and hinge integrity
• Wheel and brake durability

We also test under simulated real-life conditions such as uneven terrain and directional shifts to ensure long-term reliability.

Whether you're navigating city footpaths, suburban parks, or travel terminals, your pram should feel stable, smooth, and secure.

Are Edwards & Co Pram Fabrics Safe for Babies?

Babies chew. Touch. Rub. Explore.

That’s the reason material safety is so important for us too.

Most Edwards & Co stroller fabrics are certified to OEKOTEX-100, the highest available textile safety certification. This ensures fabrics are free from over 100 harmful chemicals commonly used in textile manufacturing.

Additionally, our materials are tested to:

• EN71-3 Migration of Elements (a safety test for toys and children’s products)
• REACH compliance (European chemical safety regulation)

Even bumper bars are tested for restricted substances such as DEHP.

For food-contact accessories like our Snack Trays, we comply with:

• Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004 (EU food-grade safety standard)

If it touches your baby, it’s tested.

Are Edwards & Co Prams Tested for Stability and Brake Safety?

Absolutely. All prams undergo tipping and brake testing to ensure they remain upright and secure, even in challenging scenarios.

Testing includes:

• Brake engagement on incline
• Sudden weight shifts
• Maximum load testing
• Stability under uneven conditions

A brake must hold every time. Stability must be reliable in both common and rare situations.

This isn’t optional, it’s fundamental.

How Do Edwards & Co Prams Perform in New Zealand Weather?

New Zealand weather can shift quickly, from cold mornings to warm afternoons.

Our prams are tested to withstand:

• Extreme heat
• Extreme cold
• UV exposure
• Humidity variation

Fabric colour fastness is tested under ISO standards for:

• Artificial light (UV)
• Washing
• Wet and dry rubbing

The result is a pram that maintains both structural integrity and aesthetic quality over time.

Why Do Over 1,600+ Parents Recommend Edwards & Co Prams?

Safety certifications matter, but real-world experience matters just as much.

More than 1,600 families have shared positive reviews about their Edwards & Co prams, consistently highlighting:

• Smooth manoeuvrability
